Description

Sales Executive – New Business Development 

Are you the type of salesperson who creates momentum instead of waiting for it? 

Do you enjoy opening doors, having real conversations with business leaders, and moving opportunities forward quickly? 

Many strong salespeople get stuck in organizations where process slows them down, approvals delay decisions, and pipeline growth stalls. If you perform best when you have the freedom to act, adapt, and push opportunities forward, this role was built for you. 

LeadingIT is looking for a high-output sales professional responsible for creating and closing new business opportunities. This is not a passive account management role. Your focus will be developing new relationships, identifying business challenges, and converting opportunities into clients.

  • Drive the Sales Process 
  • Move Deals Forward 
  • Build Strategic Relationships

You likely thrive here if you: 

  • Take initiative to start conversations and pursue opportunities 
  • Are comfortable making decisions without perfect information 
  • Maintain momentum even when facing rejection 
  • Prefer action and interaction over heavy internal process 
  • Enjoy solving business problems through conversation 

This role rewards people who move quickly, adapt, and create opportunities.
